I got a blue ribbon at the fair!

I decided to enter my paper pieced wallhanging in our county fair and got a blue ribbon with honor star. I haven't entered anything for years but figured why not?

Very lovely! Would you mind telling us where you found the pattern for the border? Is it dimensional?

Yes, the border is dimensional - made with the Double Diamond ruler

Pretty! Congratulations

SheriR 07-14-2014 08:32 PM

Really really pretty. Congrats on your blue ribbon!

ruthrings 07-14-2014 08:39 PM

But after you cut the border with that ruler, how do you attach it? It doesn't look fused or appliquéd? It's fascinating.

Teddybear Lady 07-14-2014 08:43 PM

Congratulations! I would have given you a blue ribbon too! That border is amazing.

juneayerza 07-14-2014 11:32 PM

I'm glad you won a blue ribbon; it is a beautiful piece. It's nice judges are recognizing foundation piecing since it is really a very old form of quilt making and not something brand new.

QM 07-15-2014 12:48 AM

You did a wonderful job and the judges saw that too.

Lissa 07-15-2014 02:08 AM

Congratulations...it really is a unique and beautiful piece./lissa

Very nice and what a cool border! Thanks for sharing!

Great job, love the color! And a blue ribbon to boot.

NJ Quilter 07-15-2014 03:05 AM

The quilt is gorgeous and the border is amazing. I am very impressed with your mitering as well! No wonder you got that blue ribbon!

Diane007 07-15-2014 03:11 AM

QUILTNMO 07-15-2014 03:23 AM

Congrats. Its beautiful!!!

NUTMEG10 07-15-2014 03:34 AM

Congratulation it is beautiful and love the color. Your border is beautiful. I believe it is done with a special ruler (template). If so I have it and forgot about it. Will have to dig it out and use it. Great job.

dms 07-15-2014 03:58 AM

That is so neat! I love the border treatment-how clever. Only 2 colors too.

lauriequilts 07-15-2014 04:43 AM

You deserved a blue ribbon on this one! I love the border especially.

Maureen NJ 07-15-2014 04:47 AM

What is the pattern of the star? Beautiful! Congrats!

Yooper32 07-15-2014 05:04 AM

Beautiful piece! Hav no idea how you did that border but it, alone, was worthy of that blue ribbon, much less the whole quilt. Congratulations.

gabeway 07-15-2014 05:29 AM

Congrats! Well deserved.

bjrusty 07-15-2014 05:35 AM

Oh, how pretty, love the pale blue and the borders. First time I've seen the lattice borders, so nice. Congs on your ribbon. Barb

Leslie333 07-15-2014 05:39 AM

Love the quilt and the color! Congrats on the ribbon.

Congratulations! I love the borders and the color!

michelleoc 07-15-2014 06:20 AM

What a beautiful quilt! The design element you have in the boards is so delicate-looking. And your mitered corners that line up with the mitered border? makes me weep with envy! Congratulations.

Barbara Kantola 07-15-2014 06:28 AM

Congratulations on the Blue Ribbon! You did a lovely job on this small quilt! Really like the border treatment!
